2021 | Portia Prima La Encina | Ribera del Duero Clos Windsbuhl cedar and sous bois scents

cedar and sous bois scents that are nicely defined

The very classical and powerful 2020 Les Aubaguetes was produced with a blend of 70% Garnacha

The wine matures in a mix of new and used oak barrels for 18 months

the savory focused palate doles out ripe Marasca cherry

there are limestone elements into which the roots of the vines have burrowed in search of water and nutrients from the soil

2021 | Portia Prima La Encina | Ribera del Duero Clos Windsbuhl cedar and sous bois scentsMinty blackberries, pine cones, violets, incense and dark chocolate on the nose. Full bodied and fleshy with an abundance of dusty tannins and ripe black and blue fruits brightened by fresh acidity. Really fine grained, vibrant and complete. Lots of potential ahead. 94 Pts James Suckling
